Ugh here it goes

Hi.

My name is Shelley, I'm married to Stephen, we have 2 boys, Cam (10) & Torin (4).

I need to lose about 100lb to get down to anything remotely healthy (please tell me I'm not the only one with that much to lose) but at 245lb anything that comes of is a bonus.

Hi Shelley and :welcome: to the forums! I started WW a month ago and my start weight was almost the same as you - there are plenty of people on here who have about 100 pounds to lose in order to be deemed 'healthy weight' on the BMI charts. There is a forum called WeMITT's on here which is a group for those of us with a lot of weight to lose.
Have you chosen which diet you want to follow yet? There are loads of forums on here dedicated to different diets but where ever you go on this site everyone is lovely, very friendly and there is plenty of support and advice available! We are all going through the same battle after all!
My top tip: Break down your weight loss into smaller goals and celebrate when you reach them - it makes the whole thing a lot easier. For example my mini goals are listed below in my signature but I also have others such as get into a certain dress size!
I am sure I will speak to you again soon but for now I wish you the very best of luck on your weight loss journey.
